Jason DeFord grew up in Nashville, Tennessee, in the southside community of Antioch.
Jelly Roll's 2010 collaboration "Pop Another Pill" with Memphis rapper Lil Wyte reached over 6.3 millions YouTube views. This song led to the album Year Round by the hip-hop group SNO, released on the Hypnotize Minds label in April 2011 and produced by DJ Paul and Juicy J. SNO's song "Come Here White Girl" was named among "The 10 Most Memorable White Rapper Collaborations" by XXL.
Jelly Roll released many mixtapes including the Gamblin' on a Whiteboy series and the Therapeutic Music series. His independently released debut solo studio album The Big Sal Story was released on October 26, 2012. He released two collaborative albums with Haystak, two collaborative albums with Lil Wyte, four collaborative albums with Struggle Jennings and one album under the group SNO with Lil Wyte and BPZ.
Jelly Roll's 2013 mixtape Whiskey, Weed, & Women was originally named Whiskey, Weed, & Waffle House, but was later changed after the restaurant threatened legal action over the use of their name and logo on the cover. The replacement cover featured a "cease and desist" stamp in place of the Waffle House logo.
The Hate Goes On
Jelly Roll Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My wife sent you a message, you act like you ain't got it
The message was about you spending christmas with your daughter
I thought you'd give a fuck about it you're her fucking mama
But still you keep playing the victim
Using the situation to justify your addiction
I hate to tell you that your daughters really starting to hate you now
What kind of junkie goes to jail for breaking in the neighbour house
I tried paying for rehab on three different occasions
Don't worry now we got this me and my wife went all in
Until you're 90 days clean don't even bother calling
Some nights I just ride and stare at the sky
I wish you felt how I feel
Something that so fun could go so wrong, we know addiction kills
Some nights I just ride and stare at the sky
I'm wondering how it feels
When you lose control the truth unfolds and now we know addiction kills
I thought about it just the other day
Its been a while since you passed away
Man, whats going on
I turned a cold shoulder to it like i didn't know
That you was popping them oxycontins and sniffing coke
But you was smiling and laughing like it was nothing new
If i could turn back the hands of time I would have confronted you
But life dont come with a remote so i'm stuck in the moment
And if i can control it why does it feel like i'm frozen
In a memory, stuck there for infiniti
Thinking about the darkness and what the streets did to me
My minds like a perm reel that flipping pictures
Of friends that's no longer with us i hope they are forgiven
Some nights I just ride and stare at the sky
I wish you felt how I feel
Something that so fun could go so wrong, we know addiction kills
Some nights I just ride and stare at the sky
I'm wondering how it feels
When you lose control the truth unfolds and now we know addiction kills
The guys that played ball
And made it to the hall of fame
The same ones that I know die with a needle in their vein
It really ain't the old days
The game just ain't the same
If you ain't dealt with it before then you ain't felt my pain
I seen empires crumble
I seen families divide
I know a man thats whole fucking family died
I was raised to believe that a man never cry
If thats the truth why these tears laying in my eyes
But these men handle business so im handling mine
If you think I owe you something well then stand in the line
Got my middle fingers up
Both hand to the sky
Put my name on the line
Quit slandering mine
Some nights I just ride and stare at the sky
I wish you felt how I feel
Something that so fun could go so wrong, we know addiction kills
Some nights I just ride and stare at the sky
I'm wondering how it feels
When you lose control the truth unfolds and now we know addiction kills
"ADDICTION KILLS" TRACK INFO
Release Date
April 7, 2017
The song "The Hate Goes On" by Jelly Roll is an emotional account of the pain and anger felt by a family member of someone struggling with addiction. The lyrics criticize the person with addiction for their negligence towards their own daughter and their continuing habit while using the excuse of being a victim. The singer also talks about the regret they feel for not confronting their loved one before their death due to an overdose or addiction-related issues. They also mention how addiction can bring about the downfall of even successful people, leading to crumbling empires and loss of life. The repetitive line "some nights I just ride and stare at the sky" emphasizes the overwhelming emotions that arise when dealing with the consequences of addiction.
The song is very personal to the artist Jelly Roll, who struggled with addiction himself and has lost several of his close friends due to drug abuse. The song was included in his album Addiction Kills released in April 2017. The album aimed to bring attention to the issue of addiction and its devastating effects on individuals and their families. The song was well-received and praised for its honesty and emotional intensity.
